Fang and Claw and Wheeling Thrust need some fixing.

Honestly it grows on you pretty quickly. You end up having more time than you'd expect to position yourself if for no other reason than it procs as you use your combo finisher and those finishers have pretty decently long animations I find. Might just be an illusion due to familiarity but honestly it ends up not being that big a deal unless the mob spins like a top.

There's nothing remotely involved in "thinking ahead" with the random procs. You should already be sitting at the rear near a flank anyway. It's just a matter of whether or not you need to move once one of them procs which is the opposite of thinking ahead: that's a reaction.

I only have DRG at 50 for now but I've been thinking with this one- as long as you're near the section of the boss's hitbox where it changes from side to rear, you would only have to move slightly to swap between side and rear right? That's where I'm used to playing for the sake of meeting side/back positional requirements.

You do need to think ahead since you need to be ready to react to whichever you get.

I can't hear the drg complains anymore. I'm happy it's no more "stay braindead behind and replay your rotation". You can't expect to be one of the best dps class and doin nothing for it (yes, 2.x drg was like doin nothing for the amount of dps is was able to dish out). And there is more than enough time to repositioning after the proc if you stay between the it's flank and rear. Now you have to do something for your high dps, deal with it.

I don't have feelings either way about this, but I just have to point out that reacting and thinking ahead are polar opposites of each other

Well i'm glad it's working out for some people. As for me, If i wanted to be super twitchy mobile and full of mandatory positionals and buff maintenance, i would've played monk.

I'm hanging up my lance on this one. These new abilities just aren't fun to me.

This thread's topic went way over the head of most people here. This isn't only about if it's hard or not. It's very poor design, plain and simple, but it isn't technically broken. For anyone that wants to contribute their feedback, please do so here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...heeling-Thrust

I don't get how this is poor design, to have RNG that will give you one of two moves that will do dmg depending on where you are standing. You should be riding the line always as a DRG.

DRG was easy and it has a few things to make it somewhat more complicated now.

All classes have this now.

Not being able to make a stable rotation, ALWAYS having to move around, not knowing which attack out of the two identically potent ones i need to use, having all of that gated behind a cooldown that i need to keep refreshing the duration on...

I honestly thought that was leading to "it's so much fun !" :<

The only thing I dislike about DRG atm is having to refresh CT ahead of time.
